Infantino’s alleged misdemeanors include using private jets provided by countries bidding to host the World Cup, billing FIFA for personal items, and not being strict enough when filling senior roles within the organization.

A FIFA spokesperson said the president would comply with the ethics committee’s wishes.

“The FIFA president has stated publicly he fully respects the independence and work of the ethics committee and that he would provide, if required, whatever information necessary to facilitate any potential review by the committee,” he said.

“The president has made clear that he has acted appropriately and in accordance with FIFA's code of ethics.”

Infantino’s acceptance of flights on private jets arranged by both Russia and Qatar to their respective countries could be deemed a conflict of interests.
